Tai Chi

Taking time out in today's busy world is highly recommended, and Camper Calling is no exception.

Head up to the wellness area and meet Alexandra, your Tai Chi instructor. The art of Gung Fu, Qigong breathing and Tai Chi Chuan have been a constant throughout Alex’s life and she is well aware of the importance and impact it can have on an individual’s life.

The first steps to transformation start with a breath, the movements improve posture, balance, coordination, fitness, health and mental health.

You’ll be taken to a haven of calm, away from the noise and excitement of the show ground.

Tree Climbing

Activities, Activity Village, Woodland Adventure

We've teamed up with the largest provider of recreational tree climbing in the country, The Big Tree Climbing Company to offer unique experiences in the trees at Camper Calling for the whole family. 

They will teach you how to enter a tree’s canopy using ropes, knots and karabiners, whilst being securely attached in a harness at all times. Once at the top of the tree you will gain an experience which can’t be found on the ground and if you’re feeling brave you could try some branch walking before returning safely to the ground. 

The Magic Teapot

Activities, Activity Village, Kids, food Village

The Magic Teapot is a lovely little oasis hidden away in our Lakeside Field. With the fire always burning and the kettle always simmering, the friendly teapot crew will be ready to offer you a refreshing cup of tea and coffee while the musicians play and sing, encouraging all to join in!

A place to sit and soak up the atmosphere with a cuppa, simply watching and taking it all in, or becoming part of the action.

Silent Disco

Woodland Adventure, Activities, Activity Village, Adults, Kids, Teens

Shh! Camper Calling’s worst kept secret IS BACK!

Head into the woods and find your voice as our DJs battle it out for crowd participation. Infamous and a heck of a lot of fun for all the family, head on in for the quietest disco in town!

P.S We had issues last year with some Callers holding on to headphones throughout the weekend. We are well aware of this and working to make it a better, fairer experience for everyone. We do need your help though! As well as us bringing more headsets, please make sure you and your family return yours after your silent party so other people can make great memories too.

Each headset requires a refundable cash deposit of £10.

Thank you ❤️
